Gilles: OK, I had assumed MPI_Comm_spawn function was not a big stretch of the other basic capabilities. The openmpi windows pre-compiled library was obtained from this very website: https://www.open-mpi.org/software/ompi/v1.6/downloads/OpenMPI_v1.6.2-2_win64.exe Windows support was ended near

Jeff: Thanks for the extremely informative reply! I can appreciate the reasons for dropping of Windows support. The reason for wanting a Windows version of this scientific calculation software is to allow the non-programmerish end-users be able to run it 'out of the box' using precompiled Wind

Christopher, just to be clear, MPI_Comm_spawn is *not* a basic functionality. also, it might work on older windows (xp for example) you might want to report thus issue to whoever provided this Open MPI pre-compiled library. an other option is to use cygwin, it provides a fairly recent Open MPI an

I think there were a few not-entirely-correct data points in this thread. Let me clarify a few things: 1. Yes, Open MPI suspended native Windows support a while back. Native windows support is simply not a popular use case, and therefore we couldn't justify spending the time on it (not the me

Thanks for the info, Gilles. Being relatively new to MPI, I was not aware 'sm' did not work with intercommunicators - I had assumed it was an option if the others were not available. I am running as an admin on this test machine. When adding the option '-mca btl_tcp_port_min_v4 2000', a higher

Hi Kristina, Although its reported by cuda-memcheck as an error it really is an expected return code from cuPointerGetAttributes. The CUDA-aware build of OpenMPI calls cuPointerGetAttributes to query if a pointer is a host or device pointer. Memory allocated with the system allocator (malloc, g
